The countryside covers 69 % of the territory and it is a blend of crop fields, forestry and sheep and cattle grazing. History can also be found in ancient Roman roads, like the Via Salaria which connected Rome with the Adriatic sea or Via Flaminia which ends in Fano. In the countryside there are different small towns, or medival towns which still perform historical pageants and general or religious festivities. Medival towns are: Offagna, Offida, Corinaldo, Agugliano and Gradara.
